ASSESSMENT OF NATIONAL ACTION PLAN FOR THE REDUCTION OF GHG FROM TRANSPORT SECTOR IN INDONESIA
Abstract
Indonesia is the fourth largest country by population in the world after China, India and USA with 243.740 million people in 2011 and average growth rate of 1.4 percent from 2000-2010, which is 66.13 percent of the people are 15-64 years of age group.

Economy grew by average 5.2 percent per year from 2000 to 2010.Indonesia now has 135 million middle income class or equal to 60 percent of total population with average income of USD 3.850 per capita. The biggest challenge in Indonesia amongst other rapid motorization and vehicle ownership; diminishing share of public transport; urbanization coexist with inefficiency; and high consumption of energy and fuel subsidy. On the other hand, Indonesia has global commitment in reducing GHG emission 26% from BAU scenario by 2020 or 41% with international support. According to the scenario analysis based on National Action Plan of Indonesia, it can be concluded that combination of transport competitiveness, energy efficiency and GHG emission reduction will help the Indonesian government achieving global climate change commitment as well as improving the economic and local environmental condition.
